Chapter 304: Thundercloud Pool (Fourth Update)
Thousands of miles east of Lingyun City, there is a huge mountain peak. From a distance, it looks like a huge pyramid, which is about a thousand feet high, towering into the clouds, and the momentum is magnificent. Above the mountainside, it is hidden in the thick clouds all the year round, giving people an endless sense of mystery. The thundercloud pool is located at the top of this "pyramid".
The thundercloud pool is about 100 zhang longitudinal and horizontal, and it is filled with purple thunder liquid. According to legend, the territory of Ziyun County has always been full of thunder spirits. The most powerful is the Electric Sea Pool located in the royal capital, and the slightly inferior is the Thundercloud Pool located near each of the Elder's main cities.
No one knows which predecessor was the one who carved out such a "pond" on the top of such a steep mountain. No one knows whether this "pool water" is obtained from the thunderclouds of the Nine Heavens, or whether it originates from the underground ore veins.
But it is this mysterious pond water that absorbs the spiritual power of heaven and earth, and over the years, it has refined countless powerful disciples for the Ziyun County Kingdom. Of course, in order to ensure that the power of the Thundercloud Pool is not excessively absorbed, the sect has set a rule that only the first three disciples are allowed to bathe in each year, and at the same time, different deadlines have been set for different rankings.
Outside the Thundercloud Pool, there are sect disciples and domesticated brute beasts stationed all year round. For them, guarding this pond is a great honor and a great gift.
After all, on the top of the mountain where the Thundercloud Pool was born, the concentration of Thunder Spirit Power was far greater than anywhere else. Even if you don't bathe in the Thundercloud Pool, just meditating here for a few days will be very beneficial.
Of course, just as there are risks associated with bathing in the Thundercloud Pool and drinking the Purple Mystic Thunder Wine, if those who are not cultivated enough stay here for a long time, the power of the Thunder Spirit will also greatly damage their physical body meridians.
Therefore, all the disciples stationed here must have sufficient cultivation, and at the same time, the time of stationing is also limited to three months, and one batch is rotated every quarter.
At the same time, in order to avoid the situation of guarding disciples guarding and stealing, each batch of stationed disciples is composed of two hand-picked disciples appointed by each personal disciple, so as to contain and supervise each other. These people are either subordinates of their own disciples, or people they value but have not yet returned. After all, excellent juniors are often coaxed by everyone.
And because the Jiang brothers' cultivation is still low, they have no right to speak, so they don't have their share in hand-picking. There are only ten disciples stationed on the top of the mountain now.
"Whoosh!"
A meteor pierced the sky and finally landed in the hands of a stationed disciple. This gentleman's name is Mu Yan, and he is a powerful general under Xie Rongyuan. At the age of twenty-seven this year, his cultivation realm has reached the middle stage of the third level of the Flame Heaven Realm. The talent is not high, but his temperament is extraordinarily calm and serious, which is quite loved by Xie Rongyuan. And this time, he is also the leader of these ten stationed disciples.
"Brother Yan, what's written on it?Who's turn this time?" The person who asked the question was a disciple under Qiu Shengying, because he was born black, so he got a nickname and called Heizi, so that his real name was almost forgotten.
"This time it's strange! Guess who the first place is?" Mu Yan pretended to be mysterious.
"Hmph! Do you still need to guess this? Who else will there be besides your son-in-law!" The name of the person who spoke was Tie Yu, and he was Lei Zhenyue's subordinate. This person was five years older than Mo Wuji, and his cultivation was slightly higher than him, reaching the early stage of the third level of the Flame Heaven Realm. It is also one of the right-hand men of the hammer tyrant.
Mu Yan knew that Tie Yu and Hammer Ba had the same heart, but he didn't want to argue with him more, so he just smiled and said, "Brother Tie, you guessed wrong!"
As he spoke, Mu Yan passed the secret talisman to everyone. Suddenly, everyone's face showed a look of disbelief.
"Long Haotian, a native of the Thousand Flames Monarchy, has actually won the first disciple! And this kid is still behaving well, and he is not ready to come here right now! It is really unreasonable!"
After all, the biggest loss this time was his master's son, Qiu Tianyi. As a subordinate, you must always show your attitude at this time.
Originally, I wanted to see where this Long Haotian was sacred!"
............
Although the masters of these people are fighting with each other, they also don't like each other. But now that there is a Long Haotian, it has made everyone feel the same hatred for the enemy. Everyone put aside the mustard and criticized this young man who had never met before.
Just as everyone was chatting enthusiastically, suddenly, a birdsong like thunder came from the clouds.
"Thunder Dragon Sparrow, could it be that the eldest prince Xie and the eldest prince Qiu are here!"
The crowd was taken aback. Although it is not uncommon to see a thunder dragon finch in the Purple Cloud County Country, it can be judged from the cry of this thunder dragon finch that it is a domesticated flying mount. And those who can tame the Thunder Dragon Sparrow, except for those few personal disciples, there will be no one else.
A moment later, the huge figure of the Thunder Dragon Sparrow appeared in the thick clouds. And to everyone's surprise, on the back of this giant bird, there is only one person who is not to blame.
"Big Prince!" Seeing this, Mu Yan hurriedly greeted him.
"Hmm!" Xie nodded indifferently and glanced coldly at a few people.
Including Mu Yan, everyone hurriedly lowered their heads. After all, Xie Wuyi's identity is there, and even if these people are higher in cultivation than him, they still don't dare to have the slightest disrespect.
Along the way, Mu Yan wanted to reconcile several times and speak without blame, but the eldest prince Xie always had a cold face, and he cherished words like gold. You can guess without asking, I'm afraid it's the eldest son of Xie who has always been high, but now he is in third place, and he is extremely depressed, so he doesn't want to talk to them more! Mu Yan was very knowledgeable, so he kept silent.
Eventually, he led Xie Wuyi to a huge cave mansion, and the thundercloud pool was located in this cave. I saw that above the door of the cave, there was a groove in the shape of a jade plaque. Just like opening the door of the cultivation secret room of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, entering the Thundercloud Pool also requires the deduction of merit points.
However, the amount of this merit is measured in 10,000 per hour. Ordinary people simply can't afford it. And before the first three disciples come here, the sect will deposit the corresponding merit points into their jade plates. Of course, you can use these merit points for other purposes, but no one is stupid enough to do that.
"Wow!"
A ray of light lit up, and the merit value in the jade plate was instantly deducted from 120,000. Those ten disciples looked at it with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
After seeing Xie Wuyi step inside, the door of the cave naturally closed, and a group of people dispersed. After all, when they have nothing to do, they are not willing to delay their cultivation at all, and they often find a secluded place to hurry up and cultivate.
Before you know it, the day flies by. These ten disciples gathered in front of the cave again, ready to welcome Xie Wu's "bath".
But twelve hours had passed, but there was still no movement inside. Opening the door of this cave from the outside requires merit points as a key, but it can be easily pushed open from the inside.
"Brother Mu, what do you say?" Tie Yu's face was a little cold. Although your identity is special, it is okay to let you overtime for a while, but now it has been more than an hour, and that is 10,000 meritorious points!
Mu Yan's face was also a little unsightly, although he was a young master, but the overtime was so serious, as the leader, he did have the duty to inform the sect.
"Leave it to me!" Mu Yan said, taking out a secret talisman from his arms, and was about to report the matter to Xie Rongyuan.
Suddenly, in the thick clouds in the distance, there was another thunderous birdsong. A moment later, another Thunder Dragon Sparrow landed, and everyone's hearts trembled at the sight of the man on the back of the giant bird.
"What's going on? How can this be? Could it be that the person inside is Xie Wuyu!" everyone looked at each other. Because they found that the one who walked down from the back of the thunder dragon sparrow at this moment was also blameless.
Today I saw that the number of fans above the apprentice level reached fifty. Although this is not a problem for the great gods, for a newcomer like me, it is a happy thing. Add a new chapter, thank you readers for your support!
